This remote will also work under lirc. I started from a KnoppMyth R5A12 install (you have to have the source for your kernel) apt-get install lirc-modules-source cd /usr/src tar jxvf lirc-0.7.0.tar.bz2 cd lirc-0.7.0 ./setup Run through the menu configuration, pick your remote, etc. it'll make the modules and binaries and install. make sure the lirc_atiusb module is getting loaded in /etc/modules.conf (check your /etc/modutils/aliases under debian)... Add lircd to the startup file of your choice (I used /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh). Testing: All the lircd.confs I found didn't work with my Remote Wonder, so I had to trudge through irrecord. results at http://www.kurai.org/~gdunn/lircd.conf run lircd --nodaemon, look to make sure it's loading the right remote driver. run irw in another window, hit some keys on the remote and make sure you're seeing the correct remote identification and the proper key translation (from the names you defined in lircd.conf). It's a nice solid remote, but I'm not sure it was worth the hassle. Graham
